The Ruling on the Evil Eye and Its Treatment

Question:
This questioner says: In our present time, Shaykh, some people complain of the evil eye. Does the evil eye truly affect a person? What is the treatment for it? And what is the evidence for this?

Answer:
Yes, the evil eye is a reality, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The evil eye is a reality. However, it should not lead a person to the point of obsessive thoughts and fear of everything. But one should guard against the evil eye by the remembrance of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and the morning and evening adhkar. One guards against it through dhikr, du'a, and the daily recitations. Yes.
